Funny! 

I do like the pipe in that Indian though!

But this was in the 70's and it was a box-o-bike when he got it.

To put it in perspective, my parents built a new 2200 sq ft home in 1970....for $32,000, and the average price of a brand new car was around $3000. My aunt bought a 1972 Yamaha LS-2 100 motorcycle, brand new, for something like $600. Heck, in 1983 a new Honda XR-200R was only around $1100 and I recall a early-80's Honda CB-200 being under $800 brand new.

The VW in my avatar was my Mom's.  She bought it brand new in 1964 for $1,170.  It cost a little more than the others because she got the pop-out rear windows and AM/FM radio.

the indiana got a bad rap for no reason.  it was a good bike, it just didn't answer a need.  back then, anyone who would ride a cruiser wouldn't buy a ducati, and anyone who rode ducati wouldn't have a cruiser. 

it was a good bike otherwise.
